Description: Fernhill Farm is situated in the quiet village of Milcombe, just south of Banbury off the A361 road towards Chipping Norton, and is an ideal base for exploring the Midlands and the Cotswolds.Coarse Fishing is available at Fernhill Farm and comprises of three mature and well stocked lakes.
The first lake is known as the 'Pleasure' lake and is adjacent to the car park, it is the smallest of the three lakes but is very popular, stuffed with fish, many roach, bites are always plentiful, however it does hold some much larger fish including carp to double figures.
The main fishing lake, just a very short walk away is called the 'Beast' - here the serious angler can try to catch the carp, some which have grown to over 30lb, the 'Beast' also contains bream and tench. Not all that deep in places and prone to some weed beds in summer, this irregularly shaped, tree lined and sheltered lake offers many featured swims including bays, corners and islands.
The 'Match' lake, as its name would suggest, is where local clubs and match groups hold some of their competitions, any number of pegs, or the whole lake is available for hire. It is also available to the pleasure angler, if not already booked, and again can provide some non-stop action, particularly in the warmer months.Fishing at Fernhill Farm is a pleasure, most baits and methods will produce fish, including maggot, worm, sweetcorn, meat, pellet and boilies.
